Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron GBA

This game gets a lot of playtime at my home. My 4 year old has no problems completing the levels or completing the game. (Do not misread; it is still challenging, and requires her to have to save passwords and try numerous times before she completes a level.)
The game starts with a sudden thunderstorm that scatters the herd of horses, Spirit included. You have 2 characters from the movie to play with. You may pick between Litle Creek or Little Brook (Native American characters in the movie).
The objective in the game is for your character to find the horses one by one (4 in total to get to the "Spirit level"), and gain their trust (you will have to feed them, water them, sing to them, or brush them, etc. Each horse has a meter you can check to see exactly what it is he/she wants.). Then you must complete a level (3 per) with each seperate horse.
After all of the horses are home, you must find Spirit, and (without trying to give the end away), help him escape.
This game is attractive for 2 reasons: 1) It is based on the movie characters. If your child likes the characters in the movie, they'll like the characters in the game. 2) It is interactive. You must gain the trust of the horses by learning what they want. Oftentimes during the play, while you are riding them they will buck you off becuase the trust has faded away some. (They are, after all, wild horses.) You must then gain a little bit of it back.
You also must be sure to have a supply of food (each horse likes different types), water, and "health" (in the form of "hearts") on hand, which you can pick up by walking around; they are in plain view.
This is a really good game for younger gamers. Depending on their gaming skills, older children may find this game too easy.
